Re: Savage Model 12 .220 Swift single shot

I got into a buy on the last 220 Swift Single Shot Rifles built. Savage only had enough parts to build 40 rifles. They were all built with the old Stagger Feed Action Screw spacing. Due to availability of the normal VLP Stagger Feed Stocks being all but non existant, Savage built this last 40 of these with a Laminate Wood Thumbhole Stock. I currently have one left from my original 27 rifles.

If you are looking at one that is a Stainless Action in a 220 Swift with a Synthetic Stock someone may have swapped it out. The other point as Fred already mentioned it may have been made that way and it may have been from an earlier production run.
